Linear algorithm for restoring the geological structure of the designed well for the user's access to groundwater resources
... structure at a given point in the region has been developed as an additional tool for the design procedure to access groundwater resources of the Moscow-Valdai aquifer. The descriptions of the test set of boreholes were digitized in the Kaliningrad region. The study proposes an algorithm for constructing a "virtual well”, which describes the desired vertical geological structure at the user's point, considering the values of the filtration coefficients, levels of water occurrence and its establishment, flow rate and other parameters of real boreholes. The calculation is based on the use of data on the boreholes closest to a given user request point. The proposed algorithm can facilitate the design of ...
The dynamics of agricultural land use in the North-West of Russia and the Baltic countries
